I don't know what that means except that maybe the T-zero can charge the battery at %78 efficiency (still have to get it out of the battery too), don't know what that translates to with a straight ICE?!?
But wikipedia says:
" they get about The trailer used a 500 cc Kawasaki engine with a 9.5 U.S. gallon (40 liter) fuel tank and achieved 30 to 35 mpg" with no mention of the state of charge before and after. can maintain 60-80mph w/20kw
and that is a rather small and light car with fairly optimized engine and generator vs a lead sled rabbit w/auto diesel pusher getting 25/30mpg.
The boxy old rabbit weighs 3100 lbs vs 1587 for the tzero also.
